Fedora 28 FEDORA-2018-c39ae23dc8 Severe Ghostscript Fixes

This package provides useful conversion utilities based on Ghostscript software,

for converting PS, PDF and other document formats between each other.

Ghostscript is a suite of software providing an interpreter for Adobe Systems'

PostScript (PS) and Portable Document Format (PDF) page description languages.

Its primary purpose includes displaying (rasterization & rendering) and printing

of document pages, as well as conversions between different document formats.

This is a security fix for `CVE-2018-16802`. It also fixes a printing problem

discovered in one of the previous CVE fixes.
